WOOL ITEMS.
The United States Economist has the
following notes in regard to wool:
At the close and blood clothiu g
wool are in good request and prices are
sitter, while fine delaine is sought after
and is stronger in price.
Tile total receipts of wool at Boston,
says the Advertiser, during the past week
comprise 5483 bags domestic and al
bales foreign, against 1891 bags domestic
and 1911 bales foreign for the same time
last year. The total receipts since JAN
uary |, 1887, comprise 1909 bags do
nestle and a 6 bales foreign against 49,
l55 bags domestic and 25l0 bales foreign
for the corresponding period OF 1886.
An importer of ring waste assures US
to-day that he can land any reasonable
quantity Of ring waste in New York at
264d, 52tc for the best free of duty, or
624c, while WiDdeler & Co., successors to
J. L. Bowes, under date of January y,
quote superior secured Sydney wool at
Port Phillip superior secured, 2O@2Id;
do average, l7@l9d, and average secured
Queensland, 15a l6ad. On those secured
woods the duty Is SOC, while on ring waste
the duty is 10c.
The duty on wool tops. Attorney-G Gen
eral Garland to-day rendered an opinion
of the greatest Importance to the wool
interests. He decides that the long es-
tablished custom of the Treasury of as
sessing double penal duty on wool tops is
without sanction. He decides that the
provision of law under which the double
duty has been imposed has been miscou-
strueG, and that secured wool tops are
emitted to entry as other SC ured woods.
This opinion is regarded at the depart
ment as one of the most important and
far-reaching recently rendered. New

Gath" on British Politics.

English politics at present Is the struggle
OF the old British element to prevent the
Irish from keeping the balance OF power In
Parliament through the operations OF re-
cent reform bills. These political contests
in the British Islands would worry the soul
out OF Americans, as they are so long be
fore any determination is come to. 1t has
taken the threat OF armed revolution to ac.
complsh most of the proper and natural
reforms In this kingdom. The Reform bill
was only carried by the lower and middle
classes threatening to rise 10 arms. There
were more martyrs to the Reform
bill than there ever were TO the
Protestant religion. The best men 10 the
Kingdom were suppressed or deported
before 1t came to pass. so with
Catholic emancipation. The Duke OF
Wellington, who had put down Napoleon,
accepted this important change rather than
risk q civil war Some think that the Irish
will wear out the British people as long as
they are supplied with funds from the
United States to continue the political con
test. These funds, understand, are used
to neutralize government money spent in
Ireland to carry the elections.

The Government Worm Turns.

Don't ask your postmaster to put on your
stamps. Government pays him for selling,
not licking, stamps.
Remember that patience is great virtue.
Postmasters are human like other people,
and not made on purpose.
Don't save all your mutilated coins and
old bills and try to pass them on your post
master; he has to get rid Of them same as
you.
Remember that courtesy on your part will
invariably meet It's own reward.-[F From a
Newton Postmaster's Time Card.
